I am sure he will get a shoulder mount. The cape has to be tanned and thats how racks look while they are waiting for the cape and form. Awesome animal.
Please excuse my newbie observation. I have a 140 on the wall but that was with my 270. I was never given the rack to hold onto while the other mounting processes were being done. HA, all this time I thought the entire deer head was real. and

No they use foam forms to make most of the deer and just mount the skull cap.


Man, it must suck to hunt in Ill. [:'(]

Giant forsure! Congrats to your bud. Nice bucks yourself there Illinois....

In 25 years of whitetail hunting and scouting...I have yet to see a 200 inch deer in the wilds of Northern Idaho..we have a few nontypicals in the records books over 250+ but not the #'s I see year in and year out like you all have in the midwest states
